Zhang Ziyi’s big comeback in She’s Got No Name, a period drama directed by Peter Chan, crushed it at the Chinese box office last weekend, pulling in $24.1 million right out of the gate. The film marks her first major role in years and reunites her with Chan, whose track record adds extra buzz.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another box office win—it’s a signal that star power and strong storytelling still draw crowds, even in a tough market. For fans, it’s a long-awaited return for Zhang Ziyi, and for the industry, it’s proof that well-crafted dramas can compete with flashy blockbusters.
